Recipe for Your Psychosis

Recipe for Your Psychosis

A Poem by LeannaE

You desire love, 

but can’t cook 

with a missing ingredient.  

Instead, 

brew up a strong-hold 

that turns everything 

into a black maze of madness.

Twist my words into serpents 

that slither around my feet.

Then chop them up, 

one by one, 

and sizzle them on the skillet.

Throw me in a saucepan.

Let me simmer 

until you create the elite 

that matches your dark triad.

Make me your accomplice,  

so you don’t have to 

cook alone

anymore.

Sing while you work, 

“Our powers combined.” 

Drink the blood wine 

of your family and friends.

Continue to make 

your glory dish.

Never pick up on

the scent 

of rotten tomatoes.

Season your masterpiece 

with distorted reality.

Garnish the plate 

with your seven ploys. 

And await the proceedings 

of your grand surmise.

Well done,

a delicious pile 

of stagnant, 

putrid brown.

Savor every bite.
